Andersp: You were probable playing better then they were, so for some - they consider that cheating.... but kind of looks like you resigned the game after that point - so apparently by calling you a cheater, it got him the game win.

... That is one strategy to win that some take - get into your opponents head.

Andersp: maybe he felt cheated because of the way that stairs games can start without accepting the challenge before the timer starts since he timed out on the first one. just a thought

Vikings: I didnt challenge him, he challenged me

Marfitalu: Well...even if coan often speaks for Fencer i prefer to wait for Fencers answer :)

Noone deserves to be called cheater or nazi, there are enough people here without those bad losers.

Andersp: I don't say I speak to Fencer often - but what I see is someone who talked his way into a win by getting you to resign. Did they cross the line? Well I'll let Fencer decide that - but if some people know they can get an easy win by just pushing a few buttons, they will.

Again, not saying that is the right thing to do - but if someone does that to me, I just simply put them on ignore and continue to play my game in piece.

coan.net: Well...i guess BKR is more important to you than it is to me then LOL

Subject: Re: Cheat?

Andersp: No, BKR is not that important to me - but I would not let someone talk me into giving them a free win.

coan.net: Lets hope that Fencer uses "your sign" then noone needs to read "cheater" and "nazi" again.

Luckily i hadnt my daughter on my lap this time, its not so fun/easy to explain what those words mean.
